WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Serafin Fishery is recalling Salmon Dip and Whitefish Dip citing the possible presence of undeclared anchovies, eggs, milk and soy, known allergens, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced.
The recall involves 8-ounce clear plastic containers of Salmon Dip and Whitefish Dips. They are marked with lot #729 and lot #807 on the top and with expiration dates of August 12, 2020 and August 24, 2020 on the label. The affected products were distributed locally in retail stores.
People who have allergies to anchovies, eggs, milk and soy may get serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.
However, the company has not received any reports of illnesses related to the products to date.
The company initiated the recall after the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, in its inspection, found that the products' labeling did not list all of the products' ingredients.
Serafin Fishery has now suspended the production of the product until the company and FDA correct the problem.
Consumers who have purchased the 8-ounce packages of Salmon Dip and Whitefish Dip can return them for a full refund.
In similar incidents, Las Vegas, Nevada-based Mr. Wok Foods last week recalled about 200,000 pounds of meat and poultry products for misbranding and the presence of undeclared milk, wheat, soy, peanuts, or oysters.
In early August, H-E-B called back Blue Cheese Salmon Burgers citing the presence of wheat, a known allergen.
